The day after Thanksgiving, we hosted our 5th annual Green Friday Cleanup with REI Co-op along the Lower Salt River Cleanup at Sheeps Crossing Recreation Area and Bulldog Canyon at the Usery Pass & Bush Highway/Blue Point entrances.

164 volunteers, including 36 youth volunteers, helped us remove 2,080 pounds of trash (1.04 tons).

Green Friday is our way of thinking differently about the day after Thanksgiving; it’s a chance to celebrate the connection between people & outdoor spaces in their community, inspire environmental stewardship, & encourage use of outdoor spaces for education, recreation, & general health.
